Operating Blower - Shindaiwa EB633RT Owner's/Operator's Manual

Operating Blower

WARNING
Always wear safety glasses, hearing protection, a face filter mask and take all safety precautions or serious personal injury
may result. Do not point the blower pipe in the direction of people or pets.
IMPORTANT
Use reduced speed only when performing light-duty tasks or to comply with local noise regulations. Continuous low speed
operation may allow fuel/oil residue to build-up on the piston and cause rapid build-up of carbon on the spark arrestor
screen, resulting in overheating and engine damage. To reduce harmful build-up, run engine at wide open throttle for at least
5 minutes every hour, and inspect/clean the spark arrestor screen every 40 hours of operation. To avoid engine damage due
to over-revving, do not block blower pipe opening.
IMPORTANT
To avoid engine damage due to over-revving, do not block blower pipe opening.
Read the Safety Section carefully.
1. Use only during appropriate hours.
2. Allow the engine to warm up at a fast idle for a few minutes.
3. Control engine speed with throttle trigger (C), or throttle position le-
ver (A). Rotate throttle position lever forward for lower speed, back
for higher speed.
4. Use lower speed to blow dry leaves from walks, patios and drives.
5. Additional speed may be necessary to clean grass and leaves from a
lawn or flower bed.
6. Higher speed may be necessary to move gravel, dirt, snow, bottles or
cans from a driveway, street, parking lot or stadium.
NOTE
Never use a higher speed setting than necessary to perform a task. Remember, the higher the engine speed, the louder the
blower noise. Minimize dust by using blower at lower speeds and by dampening material with water/mist when necessary.
Keep debris on your property. Be Smart - be a good neighbor.
